I believe out of all the systems for our 6'ers Procharger gives the highest gains. I could be wrong, so you would have to compare/contrast between two cars with similar mods to see for sure. But to answer your question as far as what you would need to do....exactly how much are you willing to spend, because there are ways to make it "the fastest V6", but you probably won't have the motor for long.
Also, the cops won't care about your age if you're caught street racing. So in the best interest of keeping your ride and insurance rates down, I would wait until the track opened up to run.

This is a long term project - so I'm not saying anything definite

But I won't spend over 6 grand on any one part - unless its a new engine or something else vital like that

Our motors are stout... But your motor is only as good as your tune. Jenna on the collective makes 435rwhp/535rwtq w/ a turbo setup on a stock motor.

You are not ever going to be happy with that 4.0. No matter what you do to it, it won't be what you are looking for. But if you are still considering keeping it, you should probably go Redfire's route. If it were me, and I had the money, I would probably go more along the lines of a built up GT500 though.

Whatever you do, good luck!

I get more pleasure of beating on bolt on 3V's.... I could have done the 3V swap but I like being different.

When my car is all said and done here within the next few months... I am going to be looking around 400-420rwhp. Hopefully 11's aswell. Right now it should run mid 12's w/ an 8.8

I know what you're saying man and I'd be satisfied with that for sure. Plus the look on people's faces when they realize that its a V6 = priceless, lol. But after reading this guy's posts around this forum, I really think he would be happier with a V8. I could be wrong, but it just seems to me like for him, that would be the way to go.
